The Problem with PWA Icons
If you've ever built a Progressive Web App, you know the pain. You finish your app, it works great, and then you spend hours fighting with:
- Favicons (16x16, 32x32, 48x48...)
- Apple Touch Icons (which don't support transparency!)
- Android Adaptive Icons (maskable vs reachable)
- The dreaded
manifest.jsonsyntax
I got tired of doing this manually for my 4th app, so I built a tool to automate it.
